If you want Shimano 12-speed road gearing with a proper bailout gear, this is the cassette we’d point you to. The 11-36T range gives you easier climbing than the 11-34 options, while keeping the familiar 11T top end and compatibility with Shimano road 11-speed/new 12-speed freehub bodies.

The Shimano 105 CS-HG710-12 is the wide-range choice for riders building or replacing a 12-speed Shimano road or gravel-style drivetrain and wanting easier climbing gears without changing to a different freehub standard. Because it uses an 11T smallest sprocket, it fits the road 11-speed / new 12-speed HG freehub body listed in the official spec, which makes it a practical upgrade for many existing wheelsets.
On the road, this cassette is aimed at riders who want a friendlier low gear for steep climbs, loaded riding or mixed-terrain routes. Shimano’s HYPERGLIDE+ shifting platform is designed so you can keep pedalling through shifts, and the official gear-step design keeps the first eight cogs closely connected before opening up into the larger climbing sprockets. In plain terms, that means a natural cadence in the faster gears, then a genuine rescue gear when the road kicks up.
Compared with tighter-ratio race cassettes, the trade-off is simple: you’re choosing range and versatility over the closest possible jumps between every gear. For many Australian riders on rolling roads, alpine climbs, fondos and all-road setups, that makes this one of the most sensible Shimano 12-speed cassette options going.
Ideal for riders on Shimano 12-speed road or gravel-style setups who want lower climbing gears and broad wheel compatibility without moving to a different freehub standard.
11-36T range for easier climbing
Gives you a lower bailout gear than Shimano’s 11-34 options, which is handy for steep gradients, long days and loaded bikes.
12-speed Shimano road gearing
Built for Shimano 12-speed drivetrains with a progression that keeps the smaller cogs feeling closely spaced for steady cadence on flatter roads.
HG freehub compatibility
Works with the road 11-speed / new 12-speed FREEHUB body in the official spec, so it suits many existing road wheelsets.
11T top sprocket
Keeps the familiar road-style top end while still delivering a broad overall range.
HYPERGLIDE+ shift behaviour
Designed to shift cleanly even when you stay on the pedals, which helps when gradients or pace change quickly.
Natural early gear steps
The first eight cogs are arranged to feel smooth and connected, so you’re not constantly chasing your cadence.
Wide-range without abrupt finishing jumps
The larger cogs extend the range while still aiming to avoid the more awkward step changes some wide-range alternatives can bring.
